Double Bench III (Basics)

“Double Bench III (Basics)” was created by Matthias Neumann.

Initially conceived as part of an installation for the National Museum of Contemporary Art in Bucharest, Romania, Neumann’s Basics series explores abstracted notions of form, space and utility using the humble, approachable 2×4.

Says the artist, “Double Bench III wants to be experienced both as an abstract sculpture as well as an interactive environment.”

It is up to each viewer to decide how far to push the boundary between sculpture and furniture as they explore this functional work of art.
